The US are lucky enough to own the 5-disc edition of Blade Runner in a gorgeous briefcase with other goodies. :)

The UK, on the other hand, aren't so lucky. Instead it's packaged in a metal tin case, with less goodies.

Nooooooooooooo!!!
I wanted the brief case. Not some run-of-the-mill metal casing! :mad:

Somebody e-mailed Warner complaining. Apparently, it's not available?

The replica spinner and unicorn are also missing from the UK 5-disc set. HMV are including an exclusive spinner keyring with their copies, though. :D

Of course it isn't available. It's only available for a few million copies in the United Frickin' States! Eeeeeeeeeeverybody loves the United Frickin' States. :rolleyes:

Agreed. The UK seems to always be cheated around when it comes to DVD's. :rolleyes:

I feel in the mood to watch the Director's Cut on VHS tonight! :D Watched some yesterday, actually. :)

Eh, I'm not surprised by this. The UK always gets ripped-off.

Hardly. Plus our set is only £18...so who cares about something that won't fit in your shelf anyway. :pi:

I could never see why director cuts, changes to this film, or a load of extras was ever neccessary, except of course to make a load more bucks.

I only ever saw the origional with no extras, as this film was just perfect, as origionally shown in the cinema.

Australia's getting it too mind you. :D Perhaps some retailer will pick up the rights to the briefcase in the UK. I'll get the Region one for Christmas...no use in caking your pants in anticiaption just yet. :cool:
